Allison Janney (CJ from West Wing) talks Planned Parenthood and abortion...

CNN: Does it surprise you, 40 years after Roe vs. Wade, that this is still such a heated and debated topic?

Janney: It's extraordinary to me! It makes me so angry in a country where we are all suppose to be, "Freedom rings...Freedom!...Freedom!" And then women are the ones constantly being cut down and having information and education kept away from them as if we can't be trusted to make our own choices. It's infuriating.

CNN: A lot of attention has been focused on women's issue this election cycle, from abortion and contraception to funding for Planned Parenthood.

Janney: The fact that anyone is trying to defund Planned Parenthood...my mother use to work for Planned Parenthood and I was always aware of their existence. (Those against Planned Parenthood) want to keep women in the dark. They want to take away their right to have access to health care and education about how to take care of their own bodies. It's evil.
